Now that the days are getting shorter – you’ll probably need an extra dose of D...

Our vitamin D levels are dropping with the temperature...

We all need our D – but too much of it is actually a bad thing. If you stock up on food that is naturally rich in D, you’ll probably want to skip the D supplement. Here are some good D sources for your fall and winter meals:




• Fish such as salmon, halibut and cod
• Oysters, shrimp and caviar
• Mushrooms
• Eggs – with the yolk
• Cheese
• Milk
• Cereal
• Tofu
• Salami

Vitamin D toxicity is rare but dangerous. You can’t get too much D from the sun or from food – but if you’re considering a D supplement you really should check with your doctor first.
